Sis, there are 30-40 different brands of bread in the aisle!! They all serve the same purpose, but people will still buy their favorite!! Keep doing what you’re doing 😉🥰

I've seen other boba tea soaps but never any like this! The ice cubes are such a cute touch! As well as the straw!

So is no one gonna talk about how the soap and the mold are perfectly matching?

Taiwanese here. Bubble Tea/Pearl Tea are the better English translations in my opinion. Boba was just one store owner that called it this way and it became trendy over time, he got the idea from an Hong Kong actress Amy Yip, she was famous for her large breast in the 80s-90s, so he named his bubble tea Boba, which means “large breasts” in Taiwan. It’s like The Big Mac really is just beef hamburger, but McDonald want to give their beef hamburger a name.

You can call it bubble tea or Boba tea either way we understand it.

Before the famous range came into my country, it was called bubble tea. But then they came and everybody called it boba tea. But I’ll stick to bubble tea. A way to thanks those few local drink shops that used to sell them

Just because it's not an "original idea" means that it's not original to you. You put your talent into it and nobody can replicate anything exactly. I love the soap!! Keep doing a great job!!

Boba was what it was called originally, but it was referring only to the balls, the term boba, later became slang for boobs.
The bubble name came from what you must do before consuming the drink (shake it).
By calling it bubble tea you have a much wider category of the drink (it could be fruit tea, creamy tea, or just pearl less tea)
Boba tea though refers only to the one with the specific type of pearls in it.
There for meaning the most accurate and broad name for it will obviously be bubble tea 🧋

the lil detail of the boba syrup at the bottom is so good!!

My mom is Taiwanese. “Boba” is Taiwanese slang for “large breasts”. There are different sizes of tapioca pearls, so the larger pearls are referred to as “boba, ” while the smaller ones are referred to as “zhen zhu” (aka the literal translation of pearl).

It really doesn't matter if someone else has done it before you, you came up with this idea on your own, and you should be proud of yourself because this soap looks beautiful. I especially love the clear ice cubes.

When I was around 7-8 I had this super cool idea and a bunch of ocs that I was planning to write comics and make cartoons and even dolls about. It was about the teen girl versions of a bunch of different monsters and stuff, and it was very much playing into my early and generally kidified interest in alternative fashion.

Anyway, Monster High became a big thing less than a year later. I was so mad because "this was LITERALLY MY IDEA!! :C" Little me felt so robbed.

On the boba/bubble tea question, though, I call the black tapioca pearls drink boba tea and the fruity popping drinks bubble tea. I know it isn't "correct, " but that's how I was taught to call the two so that's how I tend to say it.

Honestly I’ve never seen it done until I saw yours just now! It’s so creative and looks amazing!!!

The final product is so fun. Especially like the extra touch with the straw.

i used to tell my little brother stories about a man called the "bye bye man", and i used to say how he would come into people's houses at night and kidnap children from their homes. this was when i was like 8 and he was 5. a few years later i was talking to a friend about it and how it used to freak him out when all the sudden she's like "oh you know that's an actual movie right?" i was flabbergasted. honestly i still can't get over it.

When i was a kid, like age 9, was obsessed with nature documentaries and decided to design my own realistic animal to fit a niche in nature. Spent a good bit designing it to root around for roots and bugs and I called it the ground pig. Mom pulled out the encyclopedia and showed me that i just invented the ardvark. Later in highschool i invented a flying weasel with fore and back limbs as bat like wings... not long later during a doctor's visit a national geographic mag in the waiting room had an article of a dino/bird fossil recently discovered with the same fore and hind leg feathered wings... darn it....

What’s your favorite boba/bubble tea flavor?? Surprisingly mine is taro😝

I tend to call it pearl tea as being from Taiwan (where 手搖杯 originates), I can’t bring myself to call it boba when it’s slang for a busty woman. In Taiwan, pearl tea is typically called 手搖杯 or 珍珠奶茶, translating to “hand shaken drink” and “pearl milk tea” respectively. Bubble tea refers to the way the pearls look in tea and the small bubbles formed when shaken, boba tea stands for the shape of the pearls, and the name pearl tea comes from the round shape as well. All are correct!

This is the first time I'm seeing this design. It's so cool!

I love the metal straws! The perfect touch.

When I was a kid, I enjoyed writing short stories and sometimes they would be like 50 pages long. I once wrote a very long story im about 7th grade. A few days later, I picked up The Hunger Games and realized my plot of the story I wrote was so similar even though I never read or seen the hungry games
